Authenticity is Everything

Gerald Ford Letter and autograph

Hello

This came from an estate a while back. Same estate that the Jimmy Carter letter I posted came from. Per family request, I have blotted out recipients name and address. This letter has interesting content. It appears Gerald Ford was asked to host A tribute to Frank Sinatra's mother Dolly, and appears to refuse. But what I have been able to find on line, he did attend the evening festivites with Frank Sinatra, raising over $750,000 for the Villa Scalabrini Retirement Center in Los Angeles. Autograph look good?

Thank you

Unless it's autopen (which I am almost certain it is not) then it's genuine.

(I don't believe Ford had a post-presidential autopen machine, but his office did send out autopenned photos and cards for a few years after he left office, possibly signed before he left the White House).

Unfortunately, like the Carter letter, it is faded due to light exposure.
